Swedish artist, Carl Larsson (1853 – 1919) is known as portraitist, book illustrator and printmaker. His most famous works are the house he designed in the small village Sundborn and watercolor scenes of everyday life there. His paintings are filled with warm, cosines and kindness, especially these 2 ones which are relating with Christmas Days. So this is the cause why I choose to put them here today.

Fairy Tales.
Carl Larsson came from a poor family and studied (1866–76) at the Konstakademi in Stockholm, supporting himself throughout this period. From 1871 to 1878 he contributed illustrations to the comic journal Kaspar and the Ny illustrerad tidning . From 1875, for several decades, he was a prolific book illustrator, his most renowned work in this field being his drawings for Fältskärns berättelser (‘The Barber-surgeon’s tales’; pubd 1883–4) by Zacharius Topelius, and the Rococo-inspired watercolours for the Samlade skaldeförsök (‘Collected attempts at poetry’; pubd 1884) by the 18th-century Swedish author Anna Maria Lenngren. However, that Larsson produced most of his own prints.
